However, Amazon's internal processes and programs are all "US-centric," so even though you bought it in the UK the bits were looked at from a US perspective at some point. I've had repeated problems with books with large tables — UK editions purchased through 'zon.uk — that traced back to "I foolishly tried to work from a Kindle edition instead of getting an epub in the first place."
